Propaganda exists with the intention of making people believe what you want them to believe. It usually takes the form of images, written words and spoken words. The aim of propaganda is to persuade people to accept certain beliefs or facts without question. Propaganda is not neccessarily good or bad - it depends who you are and what you believe in.
Propaganda can take the form of a leaflet, poster, slogan, speech or a broadcast. Most people immediately think of wars when the word 'propaganda' is mentioned. When wars are being fought it becomes essential to keep up the spirits and morale of your own side/country and at the same time persuade the enemy that they are fighting a lost cause without any hope for victory.
In groups; choose one of the following pieces of propaganda. On your group's PC/laptop, view the poster and discuss it within your group, then type up your responses to the questions in a word document and save the file to your usb. Do not update this page on your laptop - if you all edit the page at the same time you will overwrite each other's work. When you are finished, come up to the IWB and copy and paste your responses into the box corresponding with your poster. Remember, the more informed, detailed and insightful everyone's responses are, the more we all learn.
Who is this piece of propaganda aimed at? This image is an understatement on how people thought about Hitler, from what history has been said. Hitler was explained as an evil man who poisoned and killed innocent people.
This image is aimed at people who have an interest in Hitler and to see how people thought of him. Obviously by the image we can see that flowers have been given to him. This gives the viewers the impression that Hitler is getting applauded for the decisions hs making. Also there people around him are smiling, which show happiness and seems to be like Hitler is doing the right thing. This would also be aimed for voters and other people to let them think that Hitler is the right leader for Germany.
What is the propaganda trying to make the audience believe? This photo makes the audience believe that Hitler was a kind and loving man, who helped everyone and respected them. They use different effects to make this image come across such as: - The kids are looking up at Hilter and the image is at an angle where it makes him look heroic. - The flowers that the kids are holding make him look like a kind, sweet and respected man - Even the older men and smiling and have there eyes glazed in him like he is amazing. - The red images and red toned colours in the photo look very peaceful to make it look like it’s a happy place that everyone likes to be around - Hitler’s suit makes him look like a valued man who doesn’t struggle for money as well as a professional at something as he is well dressed and looks smart. It makes you want to trust him and it makes him know what he is talking about. - The writing at the bottom of the images makes it appear like there is a message in the image, which is clarified at the bottom. - Hitler is standing on a wooden piece of future to make him stand or appear taller and bigger.
Provide an example from 'Animal Farm' where the pigs used propaganda to persuade the animals to believe a similar message. An example from animal farm is when all the animals had to create a sculpture of Napoleon. Squealer always talks up Napoleon and makes him seem like his more than just a pig, like his some sort of kind hearted pig, Napoleon acts like his human, his not much better than squealer makes him out to be.
This is just like the image, when everyone is looking up to Hitler, and praising him, everyone makes Napoleon feel and look as though he is some sort of god.

Who is this piece of propaganda aimed at? This piece of propaganda is aimed at the farmers and lower-class people in that society. It aims to show that this audience has a voice, under the stuffiness of the government. It shows the farmers as real people, showing them in full colour along with the flag and the people below in black and white representing the government’s black and white view of society and the opposing view the farmers and common working people have.
What is the propaganda trying to make the audience believe?
This poster is describing small business like men in the suits sitting around were fighting and arguing about the revolution. The big figure of a man in a farmers outfit stands up and is protesting that what they are doing is wrong. This makes the viewers believe that these things need to be stopped and what this man is portraying is the right thing to do. The flag might say stop fighting as he is stepping up and taking a stand as he realises their fighting is getting nowhere.
Provide an example from 'Animal Farm' where the pigs used propaganda to persuade the animals to believe a similar message.
The song ‘Beasts of England’ taught by Old Major is a propaganda that he uses to persuade and inspire the other animals so they can take on this new revolution and fight for freedom. Every time the song was sang it would give the animals hope. The song also reminds the animals on the farm of Old Majors dream and what he worked towards his whole life.
